The uronic acid content of coccolith-associated polysaccharides provides an insight into coccolithogenesis and past climate
Unicellular phytoplanktonic algae (coccolithophores) are amongst the most prolific producers of calcium carbonate on the planet, with a production of ~10^26 coccoliths/year. During their lith formation, coccolithophores mainly employ coccolith-associated polysaccharides (CAPs) for the regulation of...
